A rotation restricting structure includes a main body a rotator rotatable with respect to the main body, and a rotation restricting member which restricts rotation of the rotator, wherein the rotator includes a rotating plate which rotates with rotation of the rotator with respect to the main body, one of the rotating plate or the main body has a protrusion portion, the rotation restricting member has a contacting portion contactable with the protrusion portion and a rotational shaft which is pivotally supported by the other of the rotating plate or the main body, the protrusion portion contacts the contacting portion by rotation of the rotator, thereby the rotational angle range of the rotator being restricted, and a position of the contacting portion provided on the rotation restricting member is different from a position of the rotational shaft provided on the rotation restricting member.
